Modern architecture is the style of the 20th century and
Los Angeles one of the most diverse and innovative cities:
Not only simplification of form and elimination of ornament,
but also social matters of affordable housing in a growing
city were crucial.
A mild climate and the money and creativity of Hollywood
here pushed every style a little further than anywhere
else.
The houses of the Case Study Program are a great example
for the use of lightweight materials and a new view on the
interaction between inside and outside.
The classic Southern California farm home was and still is
subject to countless remodels by young architects.
Steep hillsides inspired the architects to create structures
with spectacular views, and corrugated steel facades to
make them more fire resistant.
Today abandoned office buildings and loft warehouses been
converted to apartments not only downtown. Photovoltaic
solar panels start to show up, everything goes green and
more energy self sufficient.
